Genshin Impact: Starting Guide - End of the World Qi Bao

"Alright. You two, let's run first. We can't get involved in this fight."

Siegfried flung Juexi away.

“Warriors of the Kaslana family would never desert their posts.”

Siegfried was speechless. In the original storyline, Siegfried only retreated because Theresa was seriously injured. Now that Theresa is alright, Siegfried naturally won't run away.

As if to prove himself, Siegfried took out the Judgment of Heavenly Fire and fired several shots at Sirin, but to little effect.

Jue Xi rolled her eyes at him, the sarcasm obvious. (At this moment, Welt was still struggling with Sirin; there were too many people, so Welt couldn't directly unleash his ultimate skill.)

As if in a fit of pique, Siegfried merged the two heavenly fires into one.

"I have this trick up my sleeve..."

Jue Xi suddenly struck and knocked Siegfried unconscious. Siegfried complained, but he really didn't expect Jue Xi to attack him. Theresa, who had just been saved by Jue Xi, also didn't expect him to be so decisive.

"Juexi, what are you doing!"

“No, Theresa, Siegfried is ignorant, but you are? You can’t use your full strength here, can’t you see? Besides, you know the side effects of unleashing the Heavenly Flame. After one battle, if you go back missing an arm or a leg, what will Cecilia think? You should hurry up and take Siegfried back. The two of us are enough here.”

Theresa wanted to complain inwardly, how did Juexi know everything? But the words were harsh but the reasoning was sound; she didn't want to see Cecilia sad.

"I'll take Siegfried to rest first, I'll be right back, but you mustn't defect to the enemy!"

Jue Xi felt a little awkward.

"Don't worry, and what does it mean to defect to the enemy? Little Sirin isn't an enemy."

After Theresa took Siegfried away, Walter was finally able to unleash his full power.

Walter landed smoothly on the ground, his eyes turning dark red. As he opened his arms, countless Titans and planes appeared around him.

"Now, Second Herrscher, prepare yourself. Are you ready to face the First Herrscher, to face the power of Welt Yang?!"

Chapter 204 Fate

These seemingly out-of-nowhere Titans, planes, fleets... all launched an attack on Sirin.

"This is what you call the power of a Herrscher? It's nothing but a despicable trick using human weapons; it can't break through my defenses at all..."

As Celine arrogantly shouted, her barrier shattered.

"What?! How is this possible? No, how could human weapons possibly break through my defenses? Let me show you just how utterly vulnerable human weapons are!"

Sirin waved her hand, and countless enormous ghostly hands emerged from the ground. These giant hands grabbed the Titans and then tore them apart like shredded paper.

Walter didn't speak, but his pupils lit up slightly again, and another group of Titans "appeared out of thin air".

At this moment, Xilin understood what was going on.

"These mechs were created by you..."

"Finally discovered it? This is the First Herrscher's power. As long as I understand the principles of its construction, I can create it using Honkai energy. As long as I live, this force will not fall. This is the weapon created by humanity, this is the civilization created by humanity!"

Celine had never seen such a large-scale operation before, and she was exhausted from defending herself and was inevitably a little flustered.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it..."

Walter spread his arms, and behind him appeared numerous missile launch pads.

"I, Walter, challenge you on behalf of all humanity. God! Test us, see if humanity deserves to live! All troops...fire!"

"Stop getting cocky! You're nothing but a thief who steals power from the gods."

As Sirin activated her powers, most of Walter's attacks were redirected by her through "space," preventing them from causing any effective direct damage.

"Is this the power of God? It is indeed powerful. But this is far from enough! Fall down, then rise again! That's how humanity progresses, bit by bit! Come on, our war has only just begun!"

……

Juexi watched the "dazzling fireworks" from afar, unable to get a piece of the action...

"Dr. Tesla will be using that soon, right? Sorry, Sirin, it might hurt a little later..."

Jue Xi gazed at the sky, seemingly waiting for something.

The two fought for an unknown amount of time, with Walter clearly at a slight disadvantage, and he was now spitting blood...

"No... I need to hold on a little longer..."

Celine, panting and sweating, came to Walter.

"Game over, replica. I must say, as a replica, your abilities are not bad, but that's all."

As Sirin used her power to choke Walter, she keenly sensed something extremely dangerous rapidly approaching her. She looked up and saw what appeared to be a 'shooting star' streaking across the sky, but it was getting closer and closer…

"No, that thing is too dangerous..."

Time was running out; Sirin could only use her fastest reaction speed to send the 'meteor' as deep underground as possible...

"Boom..."

With a massive explosion and a mushroom cloud, Sirin lay sprawled on the ground. The teleportation had consumed most of her Honkai energy, and the aftershocks of the exploding 'meteor' had severely limited her Honkai energy reserves. She was now completely immobilized…

Walter limped over to Celine. Celine placed her hands on the ground, trying to get up, but she didn't even have the strength to stand. All she could do was move her lips.

"Hmph, you're still alive..."

Walter remained expressionless.

"I'm sorry, Herrscher," I had to kill you to protect this world.

Jue Xi was getting anxious.

"That scoundrel Otto must be here, right? He's certain he'll make a move, so he doesn't want to be the bad guy, is that it..."

Otto was certain that Jue Xi would make a move, and he smiled as he watched the scene from a distance...

"My dear friend, you've ruined most of my destiny for that little girl. Even now, you can't just stand by and watch me die, can you? Let me see your heroic rescue!"

Walter didn't say much; he immediately activated Eden's Star.

"Simulated Black Hole"

The black hole gradually swallowed Xilin. She smiled bitterly, realizing she had actually fantasized about Juexi coming to save her...

"You are all the same in the end..."

Jue Xi couldn't hold back any longer. He could already imagine Otto's expression when he saw him come out—that arrogant look of self-satisfaction, as if everything was going according to plan (which was indeed the case). But Jue Xi had no choice but to go for it.

Jue Xi, who had been watching the show, quickly appeared on the battlefield. With a single swing of her sword, she cleaved the Star of Eden in two, and the pseudo-black hole, now without further energy support, gradually dissipated.

Sirin was delighted to see Jue Xi in front of her, but Walter wanted to curse.

"Jue Xi... Do you know who she is? She's a Herrscher now!"

Jue Xi came up with a lame excuse.

"No, didn't we just want to talk things out in the first place? Why don't we have a proper discussion? Why does it have to be a fight to the death?"

"Heh...didn't you see her attitude just now? Stop being so stubborn, it's not too late to finish her off, oh dear!"

Walter tried to persuade Juexi to take action, but Juexi replied, "I don't understand, smṛṣa."

Jue Xi understood Walter's frustration and disappointment, but how could he possibly send his little angel Sirin to her death by his own hand...

Just then, Bella, who had been hiding after Walter ripped open her stomach, suddenly appeared out of nowhere, grabbed Sirin, tossed her onto her back, and flew away...

Jue Xi froze, cursing angrily at the sky...

"Bella! You little brat, you're so disloyal! You ran off without me, what am I supposed to do?"

Although Walter had lost all strength to attack, he still stood there... Naturally, Jue Xi wouldn't attack Walter either. The two looked at each other, quite awkwardly. (At least Jue Xi was awkward, while Theresa, with her short legs, had just arrived.)

Theresa looked at the two people staring at each other without saying a word, feeling somewhat puzzled.

"What are you doing?"

Jue Xi felt a little embarrassed and wanted to help Walter, but Walter pushed him away. Walter, who was not very strong to begin with, fell to the ground due to the force of the push. Theresa quickly went over to help him up.

"What about the Second Herrscher?"

Walter was extremely angry.

"This gentleman let it get away!"

Jue Xi's lips twitched. She wasn't even worthy of having a name anymore, was she? But then again, it was already a sign of high character that Walter hadn't insulted her...

Theresa looked at Juexi with some surprise.

"You really betrayed us?"

"Uh... do you believe me if I say that even if I don't take action, someone else will come to save Sirin?"

Little Theresa picked up Walter without saying a word and walked away. Just as Juexi was about to follow, Walter spoke.

"You still want to follow? Do you know how many people will lose their lives because of your stupid decision? Do you know?!"

Jue Xi was somewhat troubled. He had ultimately become the kind of person he hated. He had hated Otto to death when he saw this part of the story before, because it caused so many people to die needlessly. But now it was his turn to be pushed into the eye of the storm and be criticized...

"I will pay the price, but not now."

"Ha, who do you think you are? Mu Juexi, what price do you think you can pay to repay those who have died? Is your life more precious than theirs? Those who died..."
